Info
Overview
Almost 200 years ago, George and Anna Paech and their young family embarked on a courageous journey from their home in German-speaking Prussia to South Australia, a land they knew little about, on the other side of the world.
They were fortunate to settle on land in the Adelaide Hills, which offered nutrient rich soil with gentle north-facing slopes, perfect for growing fruit and vegetables. Six generations later, the Paech family, still 100% own, farm and live on the property, which is now known as The Beerenberg Family Farm.
In 1970, our parents, Grant and Carol, made the decision to concentrate on growing strawberries and in 1971 the first batch of strawberry jam was made and the start of Beerenberg as we know it today.
The name Beerenberg means 'Berry Hill' in German, a fitting name considering the heritage.
